laravel | 如何确认正在使用哪个缓存驱动程序？

Question

I am trying to use redis in my application but I am not sure if my app is using redis or file driver as I can't create tags but I can create normal keys fine.

I have set CACHE_DRIVER=redis and also in my cache.php I have:

'default' => env('CACHE_DRIVER', 'redis'),

also in my database.php there is:

'redis' => [

    'client' => 'predis',

    'default' => [
        'host' => env('REDIS_HOST', '127.0.0.1'),
        'password' => env('REDIS_PASSWORD', null),
        'port' => env('REDIS_PORT', 6379),
        'database' => 0,
    ],

],

The reasons for my suspicion are I cannot create tags and running redis-cli flushall under homestead(ssh) does not seem to get rid of the cahce. I had to use Cache::flush() in laravel instead.

So How can I effectively find out which cache driver my application is using?

Answer 1

Its pretty simple , you can use redis cli monitor command to check the get/set are happening or not

redis-cli monitor

And try to run the application .. if u able to see the keys then redis cache is running

u can also check the redis key by following command

redis-cli

Then enter following

keys *

I hope its useful.
